How to Plant Pistachio Hydrangea Seeds
Planting Season:
Sow Pistachio Hydrangea Seeds in early spring after the last frost, or start indoors 6-8 weeks before the last expected frost.
Seed Preparation:
Hydrangea seeds can be slow to germinate, so cold-stratify them by placing them in the fridge for 3-4 weeks before planting.
Planting Instructions:
- Depth: Plant the seeds about 1/4 inch deep in a well-draining, moist soil mix.
- Spacing: Space plants 3-4 feet apart for proper growth and air circulation.
- Light Requirements: Full sun to partial shade. Hydrangeas thrive in bright, indirect light but can tolerate some shade.
- Soil: Well-draining, slightly acidic soil rich in organic matter is ideal.
Water and Care
- Watering Needs: Keep the soil consistently moist, especially during the germination period. Once established, water regularly during dry spells but avoid overwatering.
- Temperature: Pistachio Hydrangea thrives in temperatures between 60°F to 75°F (15°C to 24°C), but can tolerate both cold and hot climates once established.
- Fertilization: Apply a balanced fertilizer in early spring to promote healthy growth and vibrant blooms. Hydrangeas prefer slightly acidic soil, so avoid fertilizers with too much lime.
- Pruning: Prune back dead or damaged wood in late winter or early spring. Trim spent flowers to encourage new blooms, and prune to maintain shape.
- Pests and Diseases: Pistachio Hydrangea is generally pest-resistant, though it may attract aphids or spider mites. Treat with insecticidal soap if necessary.
